This blog should be a golden rule... The things proposed in it are almost exactly how things used to be, on Redwall Wiki and on this one, and I'm quite abashed that I myself forgot much of it, because that's what made it all so fun. No one is entitled to everlasting happiness, so lets stop pretending we are =P. If you have a problem and want to fix it, please do fix it, whether its in your personal life or your presence here. It takes down everyone else when you let personal issues get the best of you.

FM has provided a very responsible solution to the problem and I greatly encourage it. I too am willing to listen to any problems users are having, but I don't want to see anymore petty complaints about someone being annoying or (slightly) offensive. More importantly, I don't want to see anymore petty fights on the chat or the talk-pages - contrary to my initial intentions, I'm actually not going to bother with those, they're your own problems so sort them out. If you want to make a mess of the wiki with your petty squabbles then fine. If it gets out of hand it'll stop with a few clicks on ban, and then we can wipe up the site as we see fit. Some might complain about being banned because they're friends, but what kind of friend are you when you're bringing everyone down with insignificant quarrels?

As FM has suggested, just stop taking everything so personal. I've been considered over-emotional on multiple occasions, in many places, and I still don't complain about crud that's 10 times more offensive than anything I've actually heard on here as of late. Acknowledge the fact that you aren't perfect and neither is anyone else, and just learn to get along. That is the only alternative. You can learn how to conduct yourself civilly, or you can continue to be petty and allow yourself to be miserable.

Everyone has a choice, whether or not to be pleasant and kind to other users. Everyone here is capable of making that decision, so if you have a problem with it, or really any other problem worth bringing up, come talk to someone who will help. FM is quite good with these things as you can see, and I myself have done the odd moral/psychological/spiritual lesson now and then.
